The night time is calling.... winding through the trees Darkness breath to my ear..... what is haunting me? The wise owl hoots a way.... round a crooked bend Something crawls down my spine... as old as wicked sin The night time is calling.... winding through the trees Darkness breath to my ear.... what is haunting me?
Like Dracula's cloak... a silence floats... Crawling in the black night air Mystic rush from my lips.... what is haunting me? My hand stretched out to test the fear... This should I dare? Deepest fog clutch my senses.... Such a strange nightly air The night time is calling..... winding through the trees Darkness breath to my ear.... what is haunting me?
Each illusion spinning round.... sounds inside sounds Spinning on for--e---ver mooore Hallucinations have their place..... not where to haunt the mind This darkness breath to my ear... what is haunting me?
The night time is calling.... winding through the trees Darkness breath to my ear what is haunting me? The wise owl hoots a way.... round a crooked bend Something crawls down my spine.... as old as wicked sin The night time is calling.... winding through the trees Darkness breath to my ear... what is haunting me?

About this poem:
What may haunt us inside or outside of ourselves? This is one that just ‘came to me’- you know, the muse came to visit for a while. The setting is ‘walking through the spooky ole woods alone’ but I think there’s more to the story. What do you think? And this also evolved to become a song.
